I am a proud member of the SW Florida Sons & Daughters of Erin; based on Marco Island. Please email our great leader; Kathleen, for questions or information on joining / helping out in some way: SDofErin@aol.com

Here is a link to "Celtic Spirit" School of Irish Dance based in Naples & Marco Island here in SW Florida: http://celticspiritschool.com/ Check it out, and get to see the continuation of Traditional Irish Step Dancing; which is an important part of Irish Culture & Art.

I am also proud to be a Board Member of The Naples St Patrick Foundation, which amongst a number of fundraising / educational events also organizes the annual Naples St Patrick’s Day Parade; which is now the largest privately-funded Parade in Florida; attracting 40,000 to 50,000 people each St Patrick’s Day Parade; to celebrate Irish heritage and Irish culture in America.

As with all the Foundation Board Members; we are very happy to volunteer our time.

We provide grants to qualifying High School Kids, and support Music Programs for High School Bands. This year we provided over $45,000 in Scholarships and Grants to High School Music Programs & to High School Kids here in SW Florida.

As you know, everyone is Irish on St Patrick's Day :)
